Sent to Kalamazoo.

Three or four weeks ago Deputy Sheriff
from oroville brought to this city an in
sane Chinaman, whom he was supposed to
be taking to the asylum, but he found that
he had forgotten the commitment, and he
didn't seem to feel very bad when his
prisoner strayed away from the depot and
got lost. Some people got it into their
heads that that officer brought him down
here for that purpose! Subsequently the
Chinaman appeared at the depot, and ex-
pressed himself DESTROYS of going to Olo-
Vile" where the Court would look after
him He was escorted to the staion-house
and kept there for few days, and then, as
the Oroville officer did not return for him,
he was released AID told to 90 to China
town but it was with difficulty he could
be persuaded TO leave the calaboose, for, as
he expressed it, Me heap like stay
plenty Club" His fellow country
men on l street gave him the cold
shoulder, and he soon reappeared at the
depot with his little roll of blankets, and
answered all questions with the response,
Like go Oloville ~ Finally, it was
deemed best by the officers to send him to
the Chinese headquarters at San Francisco,
and ticket was purchased for his passage
and a good meal given him to alleviate the
sorrow of leaving " the Court" as he
termed the station-house. He had been
nearly forgotten, when one day, toward the
close of last week, shadow darkened the
police-office door, and there stood John
with his blankets, and such a happy grin
on his countenance, that. though the Of
ficer in charge did calculate The deucew
he couldn't help smiling in return. The
traveller soon aired his knowledge of the
English language by suggesting that he
I q hot ka
Oloyille." He was given some food, and
then was sent to Chinatown, but during the
next day or two was more in the officers
way than one could really believe. Yes
terday it was whispered at police head
quarters, =" He's gone for good this timel'
AS the remark might be suggestive of a vi
client death, inquiry was made by re-
porter, who found that some of the officers
gave him a quantity of bread and meat,
wrote him a pass to Kalamazoo, put
him into an empty box car of a train about
to leave the city, shut and locked the door
and left him there as happy as clam "
